Moonclan

(So, the first one of these was really popular, but this one not so much. Good to know. I'm still shoving 4 more of these out though. I've done worse than five reviews. And yes, I don't put the lines in unless the clan changes. If you don't have a clue what I'm talking about you'll find out soon.)

Fallenstar walked through his territory with Icepelt. It had been her who had wanted to go, with everything on his mind Fallenstar hadn't really wanted to come. He still wasn't sure why he had agreed.

"It's great doing this Fallenstar. Just us. Alone. Don't you think?" Icepelt said.

"Yeah." Fallenstar replied, but he said it distantly.

"But do you really mean that?" Icepelt pried.

Fallenstar blinked. They'd had these little two sentence talks pretty much the whole walk and she'd accepted his half attention until now. "What?" he asked, turning to her.

Icepelt's eye grew dark. "Apparently you don't." she spun around and started back to camp.

Fallenstar had a feeling she would be stomping if it weren't for her hurt foot. "Icepelt what is it?" he called after her.

"You don't care! If you did you would've showed it by now!" she kept going.

"Icepelt no. We can talk." He called. But she didn't come back, she didn't turn around. She didn't even stop. Fallenstar stood there; for once, possibly the first time in his life, he didn't know what to do.


Dragonflame walked with Eclipsepelt. He was giving her a tour of the territory. He was also supposed to be telling her how things worked here, but Eclipsepelt wasn't a huge talker. They were heading back now. "So, we border three clans?" Eclipsepelt nodded. "And we have the smallest territory?" Eclipsepelt made an 'I don't know' noise. Dragonflame tried not to get frustrated, but seriously, it was like he was ignoring her. "Do any of the other clans border three others?" she asked. She tried not to let him hear her frustration.

"Fallenclan." He replied.

Finally! He said something. Dragonflame thought. "Well, it seems to me like we got the short end of the stick." Eclipse gave an indifferent shrug. And we're back to mister no personality. Dragonflame thought.

Still, Eclipsepelt didn't matter. Moonclan had the biggest disadvantage; it would be easy to manipulate them into starting fight. So that leaves just one question. If Eclipsepelt doesn't matter, why am I making such a big deal about it?

Meanwhile, also in Moonclan, Smokepaw walked up to Blueblaze. "Blueblaze? Are we going to start training?" he asked.

"Yes." Blueblaze replied. He did some really fast thinking. There were three main duties that had to be done, border patrols, hunting, and teaching Smokepaw to fight. Well, if any of those are more important than the others, it hunting. Besides, teaching Smokepaw to fight will be tough, might as well start simple. "Hunting. We're going hunting."

Smokepaw nodded. "Okay."

Blueblaze walked out of camp and Smokepaw followed. "So, I think you know a little about hunting. You track with your nose."

Smokepaw rolled his eyes and Blueblaze's obvious statement. "Yeah. I know that. And I'll be good at it."

Blueblaze nodded, then remembered Smokepaw couldn't see him. "Yes. Good. So I'll move on to something you might not know. Form." If it had been any other apprentice he would've just shown them the proper form. But obviously that wouldn't work with Smokepaw. So he settled with describing it. "You have to be low, close to the ground, but if you're too close, you'll make noise and scare the prey away. And of course, you have to keep your tail down. So, let's see what you can do, and I'll correct you."

Smokepaw got low to the ground. He did pretty well with all of Blueblaze's instructions, except one thing. Blueblaze walked over and gently pushed Smokepaw's lower half closer to the ground. Smokepaw tensed a little. "Alright. So, I'm doing it right now."

Blueblaze resisted nodding; it was such an instinctual thing to do. "Yes. So now let's hunt. We can probably find the most prey in the forest." Which was Windclan's old territory. Trees had grown there when the clans and two legs disappeared. "And while we're hunting we should try to find someplace for the four clans to meet. Since we're the center most clan the other clans want us to find a place."

Smokepaw nodded. The two walked over to the forest, not that it was a very dense forest. Smokepaw sniffed, and started off. Blueblaze sniffed but didn't smell any prey. I guess he really can smell better than other cats.

Blueblaze followed, but kept his distance. He didn't want to scare away Smokepaw's prey. Soon Blueblaze could smell it too. Smokepaw wriggled back and forth a little, then jumped out at his prey. He might have caught it too, if it weren't for the fact that at that moment Eclipsepelt came around the corner. Smokepaw smacked into him. And the two fell over.

"Smokepaw!" Blueblaze ran over. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine! Don't get your whiskers in a knot about it." Smokepaw snapped.

Blueblaze took a step back. "You can calm down. You're my apprentice; it's my job to worry about you."

Blueblaze couldn't tell if Smokepaw believed him or not, without eyes it was kind of hard to read his expressions, but he didn't say anything more on the matter. So Blueblaze helped Eclipsepelt up. "Sorry about that."

"My fault." Eclipsepelt replied.

Then the new cat came into view. Dragonflame is her name. Right. "High there Dragonflame." He greeted.

Dragonflame smiled. "Hi Blueblaze."

Blueblaze tried to think about something else to say. He couldn't think of anything though. "Well, I guess me and Smokepaw should go back to hunting." Smokepaw nodded.

Eclipsepelt nodded too and started back towards camp. He flicked his tail for Dragonflame to follow. Dragonflame followed, she didn't seem happy. Blueblaze couldn't say he was surprised. Eclipsepelt's lack of talking usually made him come off as cold, but he was smiling, and that was usually a good sign.
